How was the spinning hallway fight filmed?
Reveal the answer
A real 100-foot corridor that rotated. It was built inside an old airship hangar at Cardington in England and could turn at up to 8 revolutions a minute.
Hans Zimmer built the whole score on the tempo of which song?
Reveal the answer
Non, je ne regrette rien. It's the Edith Piaf song the dreamers use as their wake-up signal. Zimmer took its tempo and a slowed-down two-note motif from it.
Real explosives were banned in Paris. How did they blow up the cafe?

High-pressure nitrogen air cannons. The cannons blasted harmless debris around the actors, and the effects team added more debris digitally.
Where was the snow fortress sequence shot?

A closed ski resort in Canada. Fortress Mountain in Alberta. The crew waited for a big snowstorm.
